HER INNERMOST THOUGHT In nomethtng oft and filmy, She looked bo cool, bo fair; I think he smiled to thrill me A I wan pasnlng there; I watched the hammock swaying Beneath the spreading tree. And wished nhe might ho Haying The things Bhe thought to me. A little foot was peeping Above thn hammook'a edge; I paMBed and then went creeping Hack, hidden hy the hedge; longed to linger near her. To watch her 'neath the tree. I wifihed that 1 might hear her Say what Bhe thought to me. In Bomethlng soft and filmy She swayed beneath the oak; I felt love's impulse thrill me. And then the hammock broke; I saw her sitting, blinking. Beneath the isprpariing tree; She said what she was thinking. But not, thank God, to me. Chicago Record-Herald. TO GIVE LUNCHEON.

The Working Women and the Ballot
MRS. REBA STUTSON HILL. Granting that the educated, refined and capable club woman needs the ballot, why does the working woman need it? For the same reason that the working man needs it, for" protection. Listen to any campaign speech. In flowery terms the candidate eulogizes upon the influence and strength of the laborer. If is a splendid idea to hold elections so often, for then, if at no other time, this class of citizens re-j ceive some credit for their share in ,
;the national prosoeritv. To he sureiih rnmmnnitv t mav-
most successful candidates forget all. ward an ignorant, working girl, which about these fellows, nevertheless the, they would not think of making toriphts which organized labor claims j ward one higher up in the social scale
today have been obtained chiefly through the ballot. So large is their vote and so eagerly sought is it that it is possible for them to so bind a candidate to work for their interests, that he does not dare go contrary to their wighes. But. of course no one ever considers women's trade and labor unions. Little is heard of them, for women have no vote. They cannot elect an officer. They can have no representative in legislature or congress so law makers give them no attention. A well known instance of the helplessness of working women occurred during the shirt waist makers' strike
in New York two years ago. They ask- j friendly matrons, where she may seed for shorter hours, better pay and!rure room and board for a reasonable
ether considerations. After much opposition, after suffering all kinds of abuse; after being tauntingly told that they could not make their demands binding because there was no law hack of them, they finally obtained some better terms and went back to work. But more than anything else their difficulties revealed the working woman's need of the ballot and gave a fresh impetus to the whole suffrage cause. What laboring men have been able to accomplish in the way of shorter hours higher wages, and liabilities for accident, the laboring woman can secure when they get the right to vote. Besides this protection of her rights as an employe the working girl particularly, needs the ballot as a protection for her virtue. Today she is being continually preyed upon by vicious men and women who seek to lead her into paths of shame by the most deceitful methods, namely by pretending to be her friends. Well dressed women on shopping expeditions make her acquaintance at the bargain counters in cheap department stores. Third class boarding and rooming houses seize upon her chastity. Often the women who keep these places are of the lowest type and are paid for encouraging friendships between their girl boarders and new friends. Employment agencies make a practice of sending their good looking applicants to evil resorts, on the pretense, of course, of placing them in thoroughly respectable families. Provided she escapes these pitfalls she is almost certain to be entrapped in her amusements. For what is offered to her in the way of pleasure? The park, the dance hall, and the cheap theater, all of which throng with scavengers of womanly virtue. Her long hours of strenuous labor, too often under conditions that f-ndangers her health, and her low wages both tend to lead her into exciting amusements that will stimulate her weary body and yet not tax her meagre purse. It is a blot on cur much boasted civilization that this wholesale traffic in woman's virtue has so long been allowed to go on unheeded. It is a conclusive proof of the fact that men who have been managing the affairs of the world these many years have not successfully solved all the problems that are of utmost importance to humanity. In this case it is the woman who is sinned against, and it is she, who with the help of her club sister has the right to demand that the world be made a safe place for her to live in. It is not going too far to say that at present there is absolutely no safe place for the average working girl of our cities. Born into a wretched home of parents too poor to support her beyond her fourteenth year, she is thrust into the world, ignorant, untrained and unskilled, to earn her living. Her employer is indifferent, her friends are as poor as she, and she has not one to help her. If she chances to live near a social settlement she may find wholesome amusement there or she may, one chance in a hundred, e picked up by the Y. W. C. A. But the agencies which seek her uplift are few compared with those that encourage her downfall. "But" one asks, "Why does this abused creature not seek the arrest of her malefactors? Why does she not report to the police?" Too often these men of whom 6he might appeal hold their positions not from merit or honesty, but from "pull" with corrupt politicians. They are not always men of the highest type. They perform their tasks because the law compels them to do so and not because they love order or have interest in the welfare of huParticularly the Ladies. Not only pleasant and refreshing to the taste, but gently cleansing and sweetening to the system, Syrup of Pigs and Elixir of Senna is particularly adapted to ladies and children, and beneficial in all cases in which a wholesome, strengthening and effective laxative should be used. It is perfectly safe at all times and dispels colds, headaches and the pains j caused by indigestion and constipation so I promptly and effectively that it the one perfect family laxative which gives satisfaction to all and is recommended by millions of families who have used it and who have personal knowledge of its excellence. Its wonderful popularity, however, has led unscrupulous dealers to offer imitations which act unsatisfactorily.

man beings. Alas! too often they are secretly in sympathy with agencies which seek the ruin of helpless young women. Policemen have no higher
standard of moralitv than the average - man and the idea is all too prevalent among men that the working girl is naturally tough, when, as a matter of fact, she would be respectable if the odds were not so against her. It is not uncommon for m?n nf ennrf stanHim- in and able to defend herself. With the ballot in her hand the working girl can oust corrupt officials who are indifferent to her welfare and elect those who will respect her. She can demand dance halls and recreation places which are entirely under municipal control and supervision by intelligent, experienced women who have her interests at heart. Then and then only will the public dance hall managed by individuals, who escape responsibility by merely paying a city license, cease to exist. She can even demand municipal club houses, under the supervision of educated and rate. Could not Ihe city manage such places as these quite as easily as it manages its public baths, play grounds and parks? The state and the city have too long withheld their services to the working girl. They can as well afford to protect her as they can afford to provide for the physically maimed, the mentally weak and the morally delinquent children who are often the result of her exhausting labor, low wages and ruined virtue. They have been and still will be dilatory in assisting her until with the ballot in her hand she comes forward to demand her rights of protection. MISSIONARY MEETING. The meeting and picnic of the Friends Foreign Missionary Society held on Wednesday afternoon at the hospitable home of Prof, and Mrs. William N. Trueblood was a most delightful occasion that was bubbling over with interest and pleasure from beginning to end. There was a full attendance of members at the regular afternoon meeting which was held on the refreshing cool verandas. Hannah D. Francisco conducted the devotional exercises and several offered brief prayers. The item of business that aroused most interest and called forth a round of applause was the announcement by the treasurer, Nancy Moorman, that all of the $100 Field Fund, a voluntary pledge offering, had now been raised. Belle C. Baily gave a very interesting, informal report of the Winona Bible Conference which she attended. Mrs. E. E. McDivitt read a splendid paper telling of the devoted service of several of the women pioneers on the mission field, mentioning particularly Charlotte Tucker, Isabella Thoburn and Dr. Clara Swain. It was a great pleasure to the society to have as a guest Miss Auretta Thomas, who is now one of our regular workers in Mexico. Miss Thomas' interesting remarks and her ready answers to a fire of questions gave splendid opportunity to establish that personal acquaintanceship which will render the Mexican work more interesting to those of us here. Several of the guests including Mrs. Ralph Hill of Indianapolis, and Mrs. Edgar Stranahan, of Wichita, Kansas, made brief remarks. And then at six o'clock came the husbands, families and friends of the members to help partake of the very tempting array of food that had been supplied in such abundance. The unmar-
